You disappoint me, sir. I'd have told him to....oh, wait.

Go right ahead... it's never stopped you before.

Keep it gay, put it on LOGO. Dump the gay, put it on Bravo.

Dump the gay?? An interesting (and offensive) choice of words. And it isn't like Bravo doesn't have gay themed programming anyway, so it isn't all that much of a stretch to put it there "with the gay."

Nah, you still manage to come off like an ass. But hey, knock yourself out.

FYI, Matt: you did absolutely nothing wrong. Some people are constantly seeking reasons to be offended and will gladly seize upon anything, no matter how innocuous it may be, as an excuse.

Anyone want to join in singing the theme to The Flintstones with me?

Honestly, I think if you look over my posting history here (and granted, I don't have 6593 posts under my belt like others do) very very rarely do I actually comment on most all of the nastiness that shows up here. If the show had a panel of African Americans instead of gay people, would a similar reference be tolerated?

So you're saying "gay" is an slur, now? What are we allowed to call you? People Of....what?

As an African American (oh hell, just say "black"), if the same comment was used, I wouldn't take offense. I actually knew what Matt was getting at. I think you're reading way too deeply into this.

Your attempt to start drama with your last comment doesn't help. You might wanna get over yourself.

Day-to-day life for you must be chock full of silent indignation.

"Why do they have to put the word 'cracker' right on the box? Isn't 'Saltines' enough? Why, I never!"

People of... um... Judy Garland fandom?

(Plenty of other things come to mind, but they'd all violate the board's standards of decency.)

"Mixups, mayhem, and a gay wedding!... Of course, the term gay wedding has another meaning today...but back then it just meant fun! And that's all this show is, fun." -- The Drowsy Chaperone, currently on Broadway

I have to admit, the righteous indigation at Matt's comment -- in either version -- just eludes me as well. I have a hard time seeing how you could possibly interpret his comment as offensive unless, as seems to be the consensus, you're going out of your way looking for ways to be offended.

Casey · « **Reply #25 on:** October 28, 2006, 02:27:54 AM »

Well, the consensus is in and I seem to have overreacted. For that, I apologize.
